Care Support Worker – Help People Live Their Best Lives Every Day
Saffron Walden | Drivers preferred
Do you want a role where you genuinely make a difference every single day?
At Peabody, we’re looking for a Care Support Worker who brings warmth, energy and compassion to everything they do. This is your opportunity to support people to live independently, confidently and with dignity - making a real impact in a small, supportive setting.
Whether you’re helping with daily routines, encouraging someone to try something new, or simply being a friendly, reassuring presence, your support will help people feel safe, valued and heard.
What you’ll be doing
* Supporting with personal care, health needs and everyday living
* Helping people make choices and express what matters to them
* Encouraging hobbies, independence and community involvement
* Building trusted relationships with families, professionals and colleagues
* Creating a safe, clean and positive environment
* Keeping accurate records and contributing to reviews and team meetings
What we’re looking for
You don’t need extensive experience — what matters most is your attitude.
We’re looking for someone who is:
* Naturally kind, compassionate and patient
* A strong communicator who can build trust
* Resilient, reliable and able to adapt
* Comfortable working as part of a team
* Passionate about helping people live fulfilling lives
Experience in care is helpful, but not essential — we’ll provide training and support.
Important to know
* This is a 24/7 service, including evenings, weekends and overnight (sleep-in) shifts
* The role is based in Saffron Walden, so a driving licence and access to a vehicle are highly desirable
* You’ll join a small, supportive team where your contribution really matters
Why join Peabody?
This is more than just a job - it’s a chance to be part of something meaningful. You’ll help people live the lives they want, while developing your own skills in a supportive, values-led organisation.
